RE: Database connection from remote server

We have a similar problem, for which I came up with a "solution". We =
created a program that uses a couple of environment variables & some =
database tables to determine if you can have the password and then use =
that is the call to SQR, SQL*Plus, etc. If your interested I can share =
easily.

I need to execute a sql script on unix, which will connect to a remote=20
oracle database. What can I do to prevent hard-coding the oracle =
password=20
within the script?
